This is a question Shit Claims to Fame II

My car was in the Specsavers advert with the old lady and the loud stereo. Not me. My stupid blue Nissan Micra. Tell us about your brushes with fame.

An Austrian family I used to know
lived on a very large boat. One time I mentioned that I was planning to visit California. You know how it is - if you're going anywhere near someone's distant relative they always expect you to bump into them. Well these guys started banging on about this relative and how successful and respected he is. Before I left, they begged me to pass on family heirloom if I did bump into the guy.
It was a bit of an odd thing - a lion tooth on a leather thong to wear around the neck. Caught by great uncle something or other in 1802 type thing.

Of course, as was inevitable, the guy was just standing around waiting for someone at the airport. So itwas that I found myself saying "here's your ship clan's tooth, Arn"

well everyone else was doing it miss

"well everyone else was doing it miss"
I suppose you'd jump off a cliff if everyone else did.

Nice one!
Good set-up and convoluted wordplay at the end. All the trademarks of excellent punnage!
